My DH left tonight for a mission trip and won't be back until next Saturday. I hate when he leaves for trips but my hormones are in overdrive and I literally bawled my eyes out and sobbed uncontrollably. I kept telling myself there are women out there who have their significant others gone for so much longer than a week for multiple reasons, and a week is nothing compared to that. But wow, I could not stop breaking down. My poor DH had to try to console me and I felt bad for doing that before he left. My hormones are making me feel crazy. So now I'm exhausted from crying so hard. Think I will go have some ice cream to make me feel better.... Or just go to bed!
Re: meltdown
I totally understand how you feel. MH is in the military so you think I'd be used to him being gone for long periods of time but since I've been pregnant, I get super upset anytime he has to go into the field or has duty. My dog and I just snuggle on the couch (which she's normally not allowed on) and pout until he comes back.
Good luck during this week. The Bump ladies are here if you need to vent!
